Sri H. W. L. Poonja (born Hariwansh Lal Poonja; 13 October 1910 (or later) in Punjab, British India – 6 September 1997 in Lucknow, India), known as "Poonjaji" or "Papaji" , was an Indian sage and jivanmukta (liberated being) who embodied and taught Self-enquiry, following the example of Ramana Maharshi. He helped many people to lose their pathological identifications with concepts that denote who they are (their ‘ego’), and thus to realize who they have always been in truth, i.e. beyond any notion. The help has taken the form of humor, creativity, kindness, wisdom and the other human virtues, that are expected to appear in everyone who is free from ego.
